Google Now Keeps Getting Better

Google Now updated with movie ratings, real estate information and new widget | Android and Me.
Just as GMail keeps getting added features, the cards in Google Now keep multiplying. It is very nice to have Google Now get my location and driving time and distance automatically. I always have a current weather forecast, and I can say "Google" and search by voice for anything. If I say an address, Google Now brings up my mapping program, and guides me to my destination. It remembers my favorite sports team and keeps me up to date. It even gives me in game progress reports. Now, based on my location, it will put up a card with Zillow information about real estate, and, if I am looking at real estate, it will automatically bring up all information it has on a property. Think of what it will become when it is scrolling in your line of vision while you wear Google Glass. Isn't it nice that we get to live in a time like this?
